Week 18.

[azumods]

WEEK 18 Hearthome City isn't the farthest distance away that you've traveled, but it seems that Saturn was right in telling you that it would be a good distance away from Veilstone; surrounded by forest and with the massive shadow of Mount Coronet spreading from the west, it manages to feel both massive and secluded. As usual, there's a good amount to look at, and more than enough to keep you busy; now that the flow of time has been restarted, it may feel almost like there's not enough hours in the day. Of course, that's not the only thing that's changed lately; despite the fact that there's been another one of those setbacks, it seems that overall, you've done something for the world. There's a lot more to be done, of course, but any signs of progress are good signs. CURRENT LOCATION: HEARTHOME CITY POKEMON AVAILABLE: WITHIN CITIES SURROUNDING ROUTES: PLAINS/FOREST MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY | FRIDAY [OOC: Welcome to week eighteen of Azume; feel free to make as many top levels as you'd like and tag out to other characters! This post is for all of your interactions this week... at least until the weekend. Don't forget that a write-up is due this weekend!]

Ah... no, I understand. It definitely seems like it'd be more capable than a flesh and blood limb, anyway.

[semistableman]

It's broken-- still not sure how, so I don't think it can do the things it should be capable of doing.

But at the very least, I'll be able to grab two people instead of one.

[That second part is said pretty lightly, though.]

[enjoymyatelier]

I'm not terribly surprised it's more limited, given how basically all of us with abilities beyond that of a normal human. I'm honestly mostly glad for you that it actually functions at all.

[semistableman]

I'm glad it works. I can get around fine, like I said-- but it's useful, for the situation we're in.

[enjoymyatelier]

Honestly, if it didn't work it'd probably be more of a burden than anything, so I'm definitely glad to hear it functions.

[semistableman]

[He nods seriously.]

If that was true, I wouldn't be using it. No sense in slowing myself down.

[enjoymyatelier]

You could throw it at somebody, I suppose.

[semistableman]

Naw, man. The designer of said arm would kill me.

You ever seen a pissed off teenager talking about how she's the smartest person in the room?

[enjoymyatelier]

...in multiple contexts, yes. I think I understand.

[semistableman]

[He nods very seriously.]

I have no doubt she'd invent something just so she could kick my ass.

[enjoymyatelier]

Well, at least you can reattach it yourself. I'd imagine "I was kidnapped by interdimensional cultists who stole my arm, can you put it back on" wouldn't go over that well.

[semistableman]

[Bucky snorts a laugh.]

You'd think, but I have</> been gone for months.

[enjoymyatelier]

That is true, but who knows how we're actually going to get back? For all we know, Dialga can just drop us off the moment we left.

...

Granted, we'll still look different, I'd wager...

[semistableman]

Yeah. Probably.

That, and suddenly having strange-looking animals in tow is going to be... strange.

[enjoymyatelier]

It really will be. I mean, mine don't exactly mind Pokeballs so it wouldn't be a hassle at first, but...
